We were amazed at the breathtaking views surrounding the boathouse. Such a beautiful river with clean water - perfect for swimming! We loved boating, touring two castles and the antique boat museum, and eating at fabulous restaurants. The boathouse was warm and cozy, with plenty of space. It was so convenient to keep our boat in the slip under the boathouse. Phil was a very attentive host who went above and beyond to make our anniversary stay perfect!

Great place for a relaxing fishing trip. Very easy and affordable to leave truck and trailer at the state park with a very short boat ride to the island. If anything is needed you can take a 2minute boat ride to Alexandria Bay. The host Phil was more than accommodating and very helpful and prompt on all questions. Highly recommend.

Wonderful old rustic boathouse. The owner is friendly and helpful and even let us play cards on his boat that is docked there. Location is close to Boldt Castle which was a nice day trip. The better restaurants are in Clayton which is a little further away by boat. You must have a boat to get here...it is on a lovely island. Lots to explore on the river.

Had a great time at Cherry Island. 3 Bedroom 1800's boat house. Living space clean with all the amenities you will need. Phil the owner is a great guy and very gracious. Beautiful Island minutes by boat to Alexandria Bay and Bolt Castle. Park your boat underneath the apartment and forget putting on canvass each night! We will be back!

We spent a long weekend staying at the Casa Blanca Boat House on Cherry Island. It was an amazing vacation. The hospitality of the owners was second to none!! The views from the island were spectacular. Since the boat house is on an island, you do need to rent or have your own boat. Since we could not rent a boat for the first day of our stay, Phil picked us up from Alexandria Bay and helped with transportation until we were able to pick our boat up. We also had use of kayaks and paddle boards throughout the stay! It was a fantastic vacation!

Casa Blanca's boathouse is such a unique place. We enjoyed a private long weekend right above the water with extremely easy access to our boat moored right below us! The boathouse was charming with its wood floors, beadboard and everything we needed. A perfect night's rest in a new and very comfortable bed too. You can see Alexandria Bay from the kitchen window... The owner was very accommodating as well. Thanks for such a nice stay!
